What Did I Tear Up?

Backed into a ditch tonight One of the concrete water drains stopped my truck from falling in though. No visible damage but the truck was resting on the pass side u-bolt that hangs on the trailing arm. Did I hurt anything?

I doubt it. I've scraped my U-bolts hard on the concrete before while drving up on a concrete pad to change a flat tire...didn't hurt a thing except the concrete
I would say that being how tough these trucks are that if there isn't any visible damage and it still drives good you are fine
